The Dishing Diva

Cat Deeley has revealed that rather than waste time hating herself, she has decided to love her imperfections.

The So You Think You Can Dance host, who has often topped the beauty polls, said although she knows she isn’t perfect, she has learned to be happy with what she has got.

The 33-year-old told Cosmopolitan: “I embraced early on that I’m not perfect. Besides, it’s the imperfections that make people fall in love. Otherwise, we’d all love the same person; guys would all love Gisele and girls would all love Brad Pitt.”

But like every other woman across the globe, she did admit to having the occasional “off day”.

“We all have those days when you have to squeeze a bit harder into your jeans or when you look in the mirror after a long flight and are like, ‘Oh, my goodness!’”

Girls Aloud star Cheryl Cole is reportedly set to star as herself in British soap Coronation Street.

Cheryl, 26, is currently travelling the UK with The X Factor looking for the country’s next big star and it is claimed she has landed a role after expressing her love for the show.

A source said: "Corrie bosses are finding a way to bring in Cheryl in a cameo role playing herself. Corrie loves having celebs popping in.

"It looks likely that she will arrive in Weatherfield around Christmas for a special one-off appearance. One of her favourite characters is Rita Sullivan (Barbara Knox) so maybe she’ll pop into The Kabin."

However, a Corrie representative denied reports that Cheryl will be appearing in the show.

A rep said: "Producer Kim Crowther has had a story conference this week and they were planning into the New Year. Cheryl wasn’t mentioned."

She is wearing a stunning Monique Lhullier gown with a jeweled one-shoulder and bustline, Cole Haan sandals and H.Stern jewels.

Zac Efron is seen here posing with his Breakthrough Performer of the Year Award — at the ShoWest awards ceremony at the Paris Las Vegas on Thursday (April 2) in Las Vegas, Nevada. Congrats Zac.

While at the event, he explained to EW why he turned down the role of Ren McCormack in Footloose saying:

“I’m sure Footloose would have been a huge challenge but the actors that I love and the actors that work really hard in this industry are always shaking things up, trying new genres, acquiring new skill sets. That’s what’s always going to appeal to me: the unknown.”

Here’s a great little clip of Zac when he made a guest appearance on Ellen Degeneres’s show about emulating her hairstyle:

Here is the full interview that Zac had with Aussie Rove host Rove McManus. He talks about his movie, 17 Again which is releasing in Aussie theaters April 9th, the Aussie language and his performance at the Oscars:

I found this part of the interview where he talks about his older fans kind of cute!

“There are a lot of young fans — they’re beautiful and they’re amazing — but it’s the moms that get absolutely crazy. There was one, I was at this signing and there were stairs you had to walk up and everyone was coming one at a time. There was this mom that was in a wheelchair and her daughter came up and got an autograph. And the mom was like, ‘I want one too,’ so she stands right up from the wheelchair and walks right up on stage. I was like, ‘Of course, you can have whatever you want.’ I signed like ten things for her and she walked back down, sat back in her wheelchair and rolled away.”

No Doubt fans will be able to see the group perform together real soon.

It’s already been reported that the group will reunite on tour this summer, but get this… they will be performing a cover song for a future episode of Gossip Girl! Can you believe it?

You better because they’ve even confirmed the news on their official site.

The band says:

“Mark your calendars to see No Doubt perform “Stand And Deliver” (originally by Adam And The Ants) for the first time ever on Gossip Girl, May 11, 8/7c on The CW”

Isn’t this fantastic news?

Here’s a sweet picture of real life couple, Zac Efron and Vanessa Hudgens from when they were rehearsing on stage at LA’s Kodak Theater for one of the biggest musical numbers of tonight’s 2009 Oscars. I found it on another site justjared.com

By now you’ve probably seen all the other singers and dancers that were on stage during their performance. It was quite the musical production!

Here is a preview of Demi Lovato’s new series, Sonny With A Chance. She stars as the main character and the show makes its debut on Sunday , February 8th @ 8PM ET/PT on the Disney Channel.

She introduces the new characters on the series. Check out Tawni (Tiffany Thornton), Nico (Brandon Smith), Grady (Doug Brochu), Zora (Allisyn Arm), and Chad Dylan Cooper (Sterling Knight) before they even premiere the first episode.

I find the laugh track a wee bit annoying as there is laughter after almost every line. It’s a comedy show about a comedy show. It’ll be on during the Grammys Sunday, so I’ll be sure to record it so I can check it out.

Joaquin Phoenix has shocked his movie fans by quitting his acting career to become a rapper.

Check out the video clip of his wacked out performance.

“This is me saying this is who I am. This is my story,” Phoenix told People at Las Vegas club LAVO.

“After all the years of reading scripts and reading lines, this is my chance to do something straight from the heart and put it out there,” he said. “When I was young I liked punk rock music but then I discovered rap. I love the storytelling aspect of hip-hop.”

He’s been appearing in a disheveled state and has been described as looking, ‘bizarre’, ‘unkempt’, and ‘worse-for-wear’ in recent weeks. The former hottie has grown a beard and his hair into a shabby style.

According to the Hollywood Reporter, Casey Affleck, brother of film actor Ben Affleck is directing a documentary about Joaquin Phoenix’s transition from actor to musician.

His brother River Pheonix died from a drug overdose.

In this video Joaquin Pheonix can be seen falling from the stage.
